I am currently visiting the USA, and before I leave I want to try some food that is "uniquely" american - IE, you can't really find it outside of the country.
UK stores do tend to have a "USA section" which has a small amount of sweets and other products. But I am wondering what americans specifically missed / couldn't find in other countries.
As an example - Wendy's as far as I've seen, isn't local to the UK or at least where I live. So trying that was a "unique american food", to me.
I'm also in Chicago at the moment, so I made sure to try a proper (real?) Chicago deep dish pizza (loved it, by the way).
Alternatively, any other suggestions of food to try?
Immediate edit - turns out Wendy's is in some locations in the UK. I just assumed incorrectly!
Thanks for all the suggestions!!
Agreed, but they're in Chicago not Texas.
I’m sure there are decent texmex places in a city as large as Chicago.
Rick Bayless' restraunt Frontera Grill is based out of Chicago. I believe they even have one at O'Hare.
Chicago has everything you need for good tex mex: cheap and abundant cheese, cheap and abundant meat, and a strong presence of german and latin descent folk
That just means they can't get good Mexican food, but you can get good tex mex anywhere 🤷♂️ it won't be peak, no, but it'll be good
